skill acquisition Flashcards
motor (movement) skill
special form of skills that require movement of the body or limbs
skill acquisition
is the science that underpins movement learning and execution and its more commonly termed motor learning and control
fundamental movement skills (FMS)
catch, kick, run, vertical leap, overhand throw, ball bounce, leap, dodge,punt
sports specific skills
are more complex than FMS and are often a sequence of FMS
cognitive stage
beginner stage- mentally trying to comprehend the movement required
cognitive stage - characteristic
- substantial attention required
- a lot of mistakes are made
-difficulty understanding external cues
cognitive stage- type of practice
part practice, blocked practice
cognitive stage- suitable feedback
augmented - from a coach
associative stage
refine their technique and movement patterns
associative stage- characteristics
-increased awareness of external cues
-tactical information
- self correct errors
associative stage- type of practice
random/blocked
associative stage- types of feedback
augmented, internal starting to develop
autonomous stage
mostly automatic
autonomous stage- characteristics
- little attention required
-good use of intrinsic senses - focus on developing tactics
autonomous stage- type of practice
random
autonomous stage- type of feedback
internal, knowledge of performance
precision of movement
- fine motor
- gross motor
fine motor skills
the use of small muscle groups to perform skills that require precision
gross motor skills
the use of large muscle groups to perform skills that require strength, power, force
types of movement
-discrete
- serial
- continuous
discrete
involves movement of short duration and the skills have a clear beginning and end
e.g golf swing
serial
are a series of discrete skills linked together to create a more complex skill
e.g triple jump
continuous
have no clear beginning or end. movement may continue for as long as the performer wants. repetitive action of the movement
e.g swimming
predictability of the environment
-open
-closed
